Professional Internship Programs in Australia

I am an animal science student from Brazil. The internship arranged for me was in an Australian zoo. Although I had taken an English course before starting the internship, when I first started I was completely lost with the language. After a few weeks working at the zoo every day, I found myself gaining a little more confidence to talk, and I could finally understand Australian slang (at least most of it).

After working a month at the zoo, most of the staff already knew me, and I felt they were starting to lack new tasks for me. One day, among 15 Australian interns, I was called to guide a blind man through the zoo. That day, I saw that my range of vocabulary was terrible. I have asked the blind guy, like a hundred time, if he had already SEEN that or this animal. I could not find a word to substitute the verb to SEE.

Luckily, the guy was completely good tempered. He just laugh at me, and answered that he would love me to take him to hear or to pet the animals. At the end of the day, obviously, I apologized for all the misunderstanding, but he said that was totally ok, that I was such a good guide, and he understood I was a foreign, not yet fluent.

The zookeeper who I was working with that day laugh at me too, and I told her. Although frustrating, the experience was really good for me. I wasn’t used to work with PEOPLE. After that day, I felt I was ready for anything.

A good opportunity to enjoy australia as well to learn a bit about hotel food and beverage industry. Nice staff members at the company through emails and fast response of these. A nice experience I had was when at christmas day, we all gathered to enjoy a nice meal before qe started to work for this event.

With Australia Internship, I have a lot of new experience that is very useful, not only for my education but also for my social life. During my 6 months internship in Australia, I have many new friends. Not only the one that originally from Australia, but also new friends that come from United states, Europe, and other south east asia countries like mine. Moreover, the skill that I learnt during my internship can't be replaced with other education.

I was offered an internship opportunity in banking system which matches my finance field perfectly. The condition of workplace is sensational and all of my colleagues in department are helpful and friendly.

Coming to Brisbane, Australia to do my internship through AI has been a life changing experience. I am currently working in a medical research facility where I have been given my own project pertaining to scabies disease.

Each day, I run various trials pertaining to my project and record my work in my lab book. It's incredible being in a lab where I am running trials and discovering things that no one else has touched before.

Additionally, I have had the change to travel while doing my internship. I have gone to Mount Isa/ Cloncurry to teach microbiology to aboriginal students. I will be traveling to Auckland, NZ next week to speak at an international conference on my project. I could not believe how lucky I was to be given the chance to travel around with our lab group.

In general, Australia is such an incredible place filled with beautiful sights and souls.

I've participated one of a program of Australian Internships which includes 15 weeks of English course, 2 weeks of workplace training, and 8 weeks of internships in Brisbane.

It was totally awesome what I've experienced in Australia with this program. it gave me opportunities to think about my future career in different way.

i knew that I'm on the way to studying in bachelor degree and it is limited what i can do in this internship. However Australian internships placed me a great workplace and I've got lots of skills there. everyone on the company was friendly and taught me kindly.

Their service during the program was also great. when i had problems with the host company, they contacted me a lot and listened me carefully.

i really thank Australian Internships:)

Have the opportunity to do a internship in Australia is being just a fantastic experience.
For me the main point is that I'm improving my english and developing my skills in my area in the same time.
I'm sure the internship will help me to increase the opportunities in my career.

It was absolutely a great experience, not only professionally but personally. I did my internship in a new field and everyone there took the time to teach me. It was a great opportunity to actually know where I want to go in my career.

I had the chance to meet incredible people that taught me so much about my self and what life is about.
